About this book

The chemist has a vast range of high-tech catalysts to use when working in fine chemical synthesis but the catalysts are generally hard to use and require both time, skill and experience to handle properly. The Catalysts for Fine Chemical Synthesis series contains tested and validated procedures which provide a unique range resources for chemists who work in organic chemistry. Volume 3 in the series focuses on catalysts for carbon-carbon bond formation and presents practical and detailed protocols on how to use sophisticated catalysts by the "inventors" and "developers" who created them.

This reference provides detailed information for the preparation and use of relevant catalysts for the formation of carbon carbon bonds. (Journal of the American Chemical Society, September 14, 2005)
